To save your time, you’d better taxi from the aorport to Temple of Heaven. The taxi ride time depends on the traffic at that time, and basically it takes over one hour. You can grab a bite at the restaurants at the airport such as McDonald’s or other western food.

I have an 8 hour layover at Beijing and wanted to visit the Temple of Heaven. Our flight arrives on a Saturday at 5:20am and our departing flight is at 1:25pm. How long would it take to go from Beijing airport to the Temple of Heaven by subway? Would it be faster to take a taxi? And is there anywhere nearby we can grab something to eat?

Holiday inn express MINZUYUAN is about 15 km north of Temple of Heaven. If taxiing, you have to use two taxis, not economical. You’d better use subway, which is very convenient starting from your hotel.

First walk south from your hotel and then turn east to get to the Beitucheng Station (北土城) of Subway Line 10, about 650 meters away from your hotel. Get on the train going to the east direction and get off at the second station of Huixinxijie (惠新西街），then interchange for the subway line 5 and going south and get off at the 11th station of East Gate of Temple of Heaven (Tiantan Dongmen or 天坛东门), exit from Exit B and you will see the east gate of Temple of Heaven.

Yes. You take subway line 5 and get off at the station of Tiantan East Gate and exit from Exit B. “Tiantan” means “Temple of Heaven”. So you will get to the East Gate to Temple of Heaven, which has four gates – east, west,north and south.
